"Oh, that's it!" Xiao Liping said to Xu Aiguo, "Sister, it's very convenient to go abroad now. Where is Xu Zhi going? You want to call me, I'll have a concert, let's go together."

"Yes, sister, this is a good thing!" Bai Yuehua and others also stepped forward to comfort him.

Xu Zhi comforted Xu Aiguo and took Xiao Liping and others to play Jin Baoling for an afternoon. In addition to drawing a sketch for everyone, Xu Zhi also gave them some small things. These things were bought from the Spring Book Festival and were all good things.

Everyone was lively in the evening. Early the next morning, Xu Zhi took them to the county town. Du Xiaohui and Wu Lei returned to the provincial capital. There was also a bus in the morning. Xiao Liping, Mu Fengye and Bai Yuehua returned to the sea and were taken to Shuinan Airport by Xiao Liping's car. Seeing the five girls leaving, Xu Zhi waved to them and whispered: "Farewell forever."

There are basically no people in the county town on New Year's Eve. The empty streets and empty bus stations, and even the snow on the ground looked lonely in the wind. Xu Zhi closed his eyes and was about to drive home, but he raised his eyebrows and glanced at a small shop opposite the bus station. Liao Yurong looked at him, with expectations in his eyes. However, Xu Zhi did not stop, but waved his hand at Liao Yurong and drove back in the car. He knew that his family was preparing a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. This was the last New Year's Eve in his life.

New Year's Eve started with the sound of firecrackers, and it was around five o'clock. I don't know which family started setting off firecrackers, but the villages of Jinbaoshan began to be shrouded by the sound of firecrackers. Chongxi Township has a bad custom, which is that whoever sets off firecrackers more, long time and louder, will be more prosperous next year. Therefore, every New Year's Eve, the first and fifth day of the day, the sound of firecrackers will last for a long time. In previous years, Xu Zhi's family did not set off firecrackers because Quan Ling "sneered" at this feudal superstition. However, Quan Ling liked this practice again this year. He had long told Cheng Mingyu to buy more firecrackers and bring them back in the car, and he would buy two copies at one time, and bring one for Fan Ming's family.

Seeing that it was dark and the sound of firecrackers around him calmed down, Xu Guohong waved his hand and asked Xu Aiguo to start making dumplings. This year, Grandma Xu Zhi was at Xu Zhi's house for the New Year, and specially made some ingot-shaped dumplings for Xu Zhi. Seeing the hot dumplings coming out of the pot, Xu Cheng jumped and shouted, "Dad, you can set fire, I'll set off, I'll set off..."

"What's your name? Let your elder brother let it go!" Xu Guohong glared at him and said.

Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Let Cheng Waer let him go, he has grown up, and he will have to bear the family affairs in the future."

"Dad, look, my elder brother asked me to set off!" Xu Cheng couldn't wait to shout as he looked at the firecrackers that had wrapped his yard around.

"Hmph, I'll give it to you!" Xu Guohong handed the lit cigarette to Xu Cheng and said, "You have to be like your brother in the future and be a doctor!"

"Yes, yes!" Xu Cheng was thinking about setting off firecrackers, so he didn't care what Xu Guohong said. He took the cigarette and lit it excitedly.

"Baobabababababa..." Listening to the sound of firecrackers outside, Quan Ling shouted: "Brother Zhao, start serving dumplings!"

Xu Zhi’s family eats dumplings differently than Yanjing. Each person takes a large porcelain bowl, which contains soy sauce, vinegar, lamb oil, shredded green garlic, called sour soup dumplings. Xu Aiguo’s first bowl was served for Abdul, and the second bowl was for grandma. Seeing her grandma sitting there, she couldn’t help but think of Xu Zhi’s appearance when she was young, she was shouting about eating ingots around her grandma. Her nose felt sour, and tears flowed down, and a "smack" of tears fell into the bowl!

Grandma saw it, and with a "bang", she hit Xu Aiguo on the head with chopsticks, cursing: "Damn girl, why are you crying during the Chinese New Year? Isn't this causing disaster for the family?"

"Milk..." Xu Aiguo covered her mouth and choked, "I...I was wrong, I'll change the dumplings for you!"

"What to change!" said grandma, "You can't waste it like this even if you have money! Such a big bowl of dumplings can be poured out just by pouring them! I have eaten a lot of saliva from your childhood and your eldest child..."

"Wow..." When Xu Zhi mentioned, Xu Aiguo's emotions were even more out of control, and she hurriedly lowered her head and cried out.

"What's wrong with this damn girl?" Grandma sniffed the fragrant dumplings, squinted her eyes, and whispered in confusion.

Xu Zhi entered the room and looked at the large porcelain bowl containing ingot-shaped dumplings on the table. He knew it was his own. He sat and waited for a while, but the sound of firecrackers was still ringing behind the room. Obviously, before it was finished, Quan Ling came in with another bowl and said to Xu Zhi: "Big kid, eat first, it will be cold later and it will not be delicious."

Grandma also said, "Big baby, try it quickly. Is the dumplings made by milk for you delicious..."

"Why don't you wait for dad for a while?" Xu Zhi said with a smile.

"What are you waiting for him? You have to set off this gun for a while!" Quan Ling said excitedly, "This is the longest time in our village this year, and no one dares to compete with our family!"

Seeing that his mother was happy, Xu Zhi also picked up the bowl and ate a dumpling. He praised him again. Xu Zhi asked Abdul again. This guy had eaten dumplings, and his movements of holding chopsticks looked very skillful.

Seeing Xu Zhi happy, Quan Ling and grandma were also happy. Grandma took a bite, waved at Quan Ling, and whispered: "Damn Da Ba, I just saw Zhao Di being miserable. Please ask her privately if the young man named Cheng bullied her? Zhao Di was unhappy, so hurry up and drive him away. I'm in our house without any name and no distinction, so I'll gossip about it..."

Speaking of gossip, Quan Ling and her grandmother obviously looked tighter. At the same time, they looked at Xu Zhi who was lowering their heads and eating dumplings. They were relieved when they saw that Xu Zhi was not paying attention.

The firecrackers were finally set off. Xu Guohong brought Cheng Mingyu, Xu Cheng and Xu Bao back happily. While everyone was eating dumplings, Quan Ling really pulled Xu Aiguo to the inner room. After a while, Quan Ling shook her head at her grandma, not knowing whether her grandma could see clearly.

After eating the dumplings, Quan Ling and Xu Aiguo cleaned up briefly, opened the big table they bought specially when they entered the city last time, began to clean up cold dishes, meat and vegetables, and even made a large copper pot in the middle. Xu Zhi also rolled up his sleeves and sliced ​​mutton and fish, especially, some meatballs, prawns, etc. were placed next to the hot pot. Soon the big table was ready.

Xu Guohong picked up his cell phone and was about to call Xu Guoming. Quan Ling slapped him in the hand and said, "Just two steps, let Cheng Wa go and shout, how many cents will be for a cell phone?"
